The NBA 3X is an exhibition tournament organized by BBVA in Spain that offers the youngest basketball players the opportunity to directly experience the NBA in a family environment and challenge themselves together with their friends in a competition to become champions of the tournament.[1] It is open to all boys and girls in teams of three or four players within the following age groups: U-12, U-14, U-16, U-18 and 18+.[2]
Since the first edition of NBA 3X presented by BBVA in 2012, more than 3,000 teams and 11,000 players from all over Spain have participated in this event. It can be related as a sequel to NBA 5 United, also inviting NBA players and local streetball athletes,[3] including NBA legends Bruce Bowen, Ron Harper and Robert Horry, who together have 15 NBA rings, rising star of the Philadelphia 76ers and 2013 All Star Jrue Holiday and 2012 All Rookie First Team member Kenneth Faried of the Denver Nuggets.[4]
